I prefer ornaments that my kids make, or from a trip or generally something with some family history. This beautiful angel I bought in Kenya from a Masai tribeswoman. Obviously specifically for the tourists. That is way OK with me as I love it.
Happy Holidays!

AmberRose, 6 years agoManikin I totally thought of you today at the thrift as there were a ton of patterns being put out. Didn't see anything that seemed perfect though.
Thanks Scandi, Bellin and Manikin!

Manikin, 6 years agoThank you Amber for thinking of me and my patterns for all my girls !

AmberRose, 6 years agoI have been very fortunate that my parents are super travelers and they liked to take us with them. As adults, we all just kept traveling. I have literally been almost everywhere, twice! Antarctica to the Arctic and everywhere in-between. I still have some stones unturned and am just waiting for my kiddos to get a bit bigger to start it all over again. Unfortunately, there are some places that I loved that are no longer safe to visit. But hopefully other doors will open.
Manikin, is there something specific that you are looking for in patterns? Every once in a while I run into a cachet...like yesterday. I assume you are looking for the older ones, but that might not be right.
Happy Tuesday!
